• Calibration Rework/Code Re-write:

  • A new line of community fundraising with different starting time of cali train will be added; there will be two fundraising options, one will start at 00:00 UTC and the other will start at 12:00 UTC, the two funds will be independent of each other. The intention is to give people more options to choose which fund to raise depending on their preferred schedule while providing a predictable timing. the current funding will carry on to the 00:00 UTC fund, and the 12:00 UTC fund will start from 0% when the update is live.

    Note the image says 8am and 8pm because my timezone is UTC+8, it will show up differently according to your device timezone

  • The System will allow normal calibration buffs to be deployed even when there is a pending train, until a short time before the train starts, to prevent it from interfering with the event train

  • 8 hours before any Cali Train starts, a banner will be shown on the chat screen, similar to Party Funds, to remind players of the upcoming train.

  • With the new system deploying calibration buffs will no longer require using of an item, the functionality will be integrated directly into the Calibration NPC UI Page (Kamiko), hence all calibration-related items will be retired from the game; All Calibration related items will remain usable as normal if you already have them in your inventory before the update, and they will no longer be obtainable from any source after the update. This is to simplify the user experience, reduce the complexity of the system. You will still be able to activate calibration buffs similar to before (without contributing to the cali train fund), just that you do not need to use items to do so, you can simply click on the interface to deploy individual cali buffs.

    

  • Calibration UI update, mainly to streamline the process and make it more user-friendly and intuitive.

  • Improving SLANC's notice when the train is fully funded, it will include specific timestamps for each tier of calibration, However please keep in mind, the server MAY NOT deploy them at the exact time due to technical reason, it will try to, but may be delayed

• With player suggestions, Cali Train Community funding is added, similar to Party Funds, you can contribute 10% of the Cali Train Community funding with your unit, when the funding reaches 100%, Cali Train will activate in the next UTC 00:00 time, the system will deploy the first +1 calibration at that time, followed by 40 minutes cooldown and then the next one till +10, the buff deployed will consist of exactly the calibration chance needed and a safety buff for 5 minutes for each round.

  • When the funds are collected, the global party buff will be activated immediately, and the buff will last for 24 hours, the buff is the same as the existing global party buff
  • If a global buff is already active when a player tries to contribute the last bit of the fund, the server will not allow contribution until the buff ends, however you can freely contribute the fund as long as its not the last bit of the fund.
  • If a normal global buff (the activated by item) is used, it WILL NOT affect the global party contribution progress, the progress will continue as normal, the progress only resets when the last bit of the fund is contributed and the buff is activated by the community.

Pet & Apartment System (Initial Beta, please report any bugs or suggestions to the Discord server)

• You can adopt pets, The pet system is aimed towards a Role-Play element instead of adding combat/stat-related mechanics to avoid adding a traditional "Gacha" system which understandably many people want to avoid; instead, pets will adopt a more "Tamagotchi" style of gameplay (Tamagotchi is a type of simulation game where you take care of a virtual pet. very popular in the 90s), you will need to feed, play, and take care of your pet when they are sick to keep them happy and healthy.
• You will be able to check out other players' pets and you can tag your pet by mentioning them in chat to show it to other players, similar to how you mention other players. in the initial version of the pet system, you can play with other players' pets, but you cannot feed them or clean them, that will be the owner's responsibility.
• Taking care of your pet: Pets will have a hunger, happiness and cleanness meter, and a hidden healthiness meter, when the pet is too hungry, unhappy or dirty, it will correspondingly affect their mood, if you continue to neglect your pet, it will get sick and eventually die, you can take care of your pet by feeding them, playing with them, cleaning them and giving them medicine when they are sick.
• Obtaining pets: continuing the unique theme of CyberCode Online emphasis on no pay-to-win, the items required to redeem pets will be obtainable through Pet Shelter Volunteer Shift AFK activity and Global Buff similar to how Calibration currently works. by doing this task there will be a chance of receiving:
  • Paw Credit, You can use it to redeem pet-related items from the pet shelter
  • Volunteer Service Medallion, you combine 10 of these to get one Sanctuary Adoption Pass which you can use to adopt a pet when Adoption Buff is activated by any player.
• Pet types: it is planned to have two types of pets at the initial launch; cats and dogs, each type will have hundreds of different images based on breeds and colors, and the image of the pets will be determined randomly when you adopt the pet(more types of pets are expected to be added in the future, suggestions are welcomed). you can also randomly change the cosmetic image of your pet without changing the pet's data such as type, hunger, happiness, name and age by using Unit.
• what happens if your pet dies: if unfortunately your pet dies, you can adopt a new pet or you can choose to activate Revival Buff Global Buff to revive your pet and anyone who chooses to revive their pet during the buff duration. there will be cooldowns for reviving pets to ensure that one revival buff can only revive one pet per player.
• Apartments: You can rent apartments with BTC, and the rental fee is weekly based, if you don't have enough BTC in your account when the rental fee is due, you will be evicted from the apartment. there will be different tiers of apartments, each tier allows you to have bigger 'spaces' for your pet. currently apartment serves as a place that allows you to own pets (you must have an apartment to own a pet) and for future updates.
• Apartment restrictions: you can only have one apartment per account, and you must be at least level 100, as renting an apartment requires you to have some amount of excess BTC, this is to ensure that new players won't spend their hard-earned BTC on renting an apartment and then regret it later. at the same time encourages players to level up and serve as a progression milestone.
• Apartment on market: every day there will be random apartments available for rent on the market, with different appearances, addresses and price
